I still haven't figured out how to actually open a file/folder in Finder (with the keyboard).

There is even a shell command called "open" that opens its argument with the application Finder would use, or watever you pass as an option.

(As a sidenote, you can drag documents from the finder into a Terminal window and their absolute paths appear at the cursor position).

Oh! Thanks. ⌘↓ works as well (and ⌘↑ to navigate to parent directory).

Yup. Finder's still not the greatest for keyboard navigation, to be sure, but these shortcuts do make it more comfortable to use.
